LithiumOre owns approximately 26,000 acres including over 1,300 mining claims in the center of Railroad Valley, Nevada. These land claims are contiguous to those owned by their strategic partner, 3PL Operating, Inc. Recently, 3PL completed their initial drill project analysis and review of historical well drilling logs. Brine deposits measuring more than 370,000 ppm total dissolved salts were identified in the deep subsurface of their land. These levels of salinity corollate highly to the presence of Lithium and other key minerals. LithiumOre's drilling will commence within the next 60 days and we hope to provide additional scope of the size and deposit of potential mineral reserves.

Doug Cole, CEO of LithiumOre stated, "Our property is located in the central part of a very large deposit of underground brine, which we believe contains at least 1,000,000 (one million) metric tons of lithium carbonate. 3PL's findings underscore this belief and confirm our own analysis. We are very excited to begin drilling."
